Thank you, Pinterest.
My name is Sarah, and I am a Pinterest addict. Whew. I'm glad I posted that. But being a Pinterest addict, I also tweak things.
I made my home smell and taste like fall. And that is AWESOME.
I took this link and made it my own. Preheat oven to 400.
It says to buy plain Pillsbury dough and make your own rolls Ain't nobody got time for dat!
I bought the Cinnabon Pillsbury rolls at Hy-Vee (and earned .02/gallon for the fuel saver) and used it. I popped the canister (the adult version of the jack in the box) smashed the rolls flat in a greased pie pan and let them sit. I set the cream cheese frosting aside.
I took my Granny Smith Apples (also from Hy-Vee), peeled, cored and sliced them (placing the peels and cores into a pot with water, sprinkled with cinnamon -- free potpourri) and tossed them in cinnamon, granulated sugar, apple pie spice and a dash of lemon peel.
Mix one cup of flour, one cup of brown sugar and one stick of unsalted (room temp) of butter (ya'll) with your hands.
Put the apples on top of the smashed rolls.
Dump the flour/brown sugar/butter mix on top.
Bake at 400 for 30-35 minutes.
Take it out of the oven, just before the top gets brown, and let it sit on a cooling rack.
Remember the cream cheese frosting? Knife it out of the container and spread it on the pie. It doesn't matter if it is pretty, it tastes delicious and it won't last long!
And your house...(remember the cores/peels/cinnamon potpourri?) will smell awesome. I have 4 boys, one in pullups and one in diapers. If I could bottle this smell, I would make millions.
